The following is an extract from letter
Of Judge Drake to Mr.. il. W. Grady, ed
itor Of the Atlanta Constitution;
And furtheri on what ground can II ho said
that the young men Of to-day. who were chill
drcn during the war, or were born afterwird.
are swayed by prejudice of war against the
south? The only possible grounl for that
chorge, II II be made, is that they have been
educated TO it-have actually had "the prcju-
dice Of wal" against the south instilled into
them through their childhood and youth, and
have come to manhood in full-bown hatred
of people among whom they have never
passed nn hour, and OF whom they know next
to nothing Mr.. Grady are you willing to
make such n charge as THAR doubt.
The fact Is, Mr. Grady, and you ought to
know II If you do not, that of the people now
living In the north who were 10 years old aud
upward when the war broke out, the great
mass have ceased to think much about the
war, except as n dark and bloody reminiscenoe,
and those born since the war really know very
little about IL, and care still less. Whatever
OF noitnern antagouism there is to the south as
the south Is not product of the war, and has
not the least flavor of war hate In 1t. But
there Is in the north o widespread, active,
resolute, and abiding hatred of the attempt OF
southern politicians to make the minority
south the ruler Of the United States. To a9-
complish that mad ambition the south Is
obliged TO resort, and does openly resort to
methods and means which are, and ever
ought 10 be, revolving to the sense of justice OF
all patriots, north and south, as they are re-.
pugn0nt TO all right views Of constitutional
andlcgal obligation.
Finally, Mr.. Grady, let me tell ou this plain
truth, that "the solid south" is, this hour, the
great obstacle to that brotherhood" whose
spirit demands absolute equality of political
and civil rights for all men; which refuses sell.
exaltatlon at the expense of a brother-mau's s
degradation; end rejects sectional domination
as fatal to patriotic devotion to country.
When the south ceases TO be solid for itself.
gives up the undemocratic idea of minority
rule, and patriotically devotes herself to tho
good OF the whole country, then nobody in the
south will care to hear about the northern
prejudice of war" and nobody in the north
| will care TO inquire, except historically, into
the circumstances and feelings which. un-
happily, once made "solld SOUTH possible.
Then, once more, we shall be united in the
bonds of atrue American brotherhood, never
more to be sundered. The north offers no i'm
| rediment to that glorious consummation to-
day. but would honestly and heartily hasten
its coming Can you, Mr.. Grady, say as much
for the south?

Breakfast Table Letter to the President.

Mr.. PRESIDENT: 1t Is anuoun ed that the
interstate commerce bill has received your
approval. II Is now your duty, under the ia ",
to nominate five commissioners, three OF
whom will undoubtedly be Dem )crats, and
will constitute the governing power of the
commission. There is chance for the exer-
else OF sound judgment and political sagacity.
Col Vim. NJ. Morrison, of Illinois, will soon
tc out of job, and goes from public life for
the time without a plemish upon his character
san honest man. He is endowed with large
share OF common sense, is generally supposed
10 bel Democrat, and is centrally aud favor
ably located, geographically, for the chair
manship Of the board of commissioners. It's
not known whether the colonel would accept
the place under your administration. II he
did SO, he would be loyal to his chief-a very
important point to consider in estimating the
duration OF your administration.
Having suggested the name of one Demo-
crat, 1t may not be inappropriate to bring to
your attention the name OF Republican,
statesman, a philosopher, aud richly endowed
with mental power to solve the intricate
problem of Transportation to be adjusted under
this law
As you have once invited this gentlemen
10 resign one position, 1t would be a graceful
act, considering your desire to honor his race
10 invite him to accept another. The Senate
of the United States would promptly confirm
Frederick Douglass.
The Secretary of the Treasury, If reports ere
correct, has resigned 1t taxes large hat to
cover Daniel Mannlng's head. The country
much prefers big hat to big boots. We have
statesmen among us who wear small hats aud
large boots Such would not be able to miu.
ege successfully the Department of the Treas
ury. The death of Samuel ]. Tilden left
Daniel Manning without a peer as leader of
the Democracy. Whether he remains in the
CABINET or retires to private life, his plans and
influence will be potential In shaping the
policy Of his party.
In these days little is left to the impulse of
the people in shaping political events. Candl.
dates for the presidency are settled upon, and
the opponent is fixed by the same caucus.
This enables the managers to calculate with
certainty that at the proper time, one will be
withdrawn for the benefit of the other.
In 1855, you are to have the right of way; in
1892, Hill is to have 1t, if he can get 1t; alter
that the deluge.
II any OF your friends doubt this, they had
better ask Daniel Manning.
Mr. President: The all.absorbng question in
1883 will be whether the majority or the mi
nority shall rule. A free ballot and an honest
count will be demanded by the friends of lib
er,y. labor, and law, for without these, liberty,
labor, and law are of no avail.

CouRTING byproXy hasnever been popular
in the United States, owing, perhaps, to the
III success that attended the efforts of Capt.
Miles standish to negotiate with Priscilla
through their mutual friend, John Alden.
Marrying by proxy gets even worse send
of when the moose hymeneal, tied by proxies
precedes by few weeks only IA loop OF
stronger twine" that is destined to put a
period to the groom's mundane career. In
all that relates to courtship and marriage
the average American has an insuperable
objection to the delegation of authority to

RARELY, If ever, in the history of jour
nalism in the United States has any publi-
cation reached such prominence during the
first year Of its existence as has been at
tained by Public Opinion, the current num-
ber of which is its forty-third issue. Its
circulation has grown with rapidity far
beyond the hopes of its projectors, aud the
voluntary tributes 1t has received from the
press should be source of pride to tho
management. PuJiic Opinion is now pub.
lisbed simultaneously iu Washington and

THERE has been decided falling of in
the tourist travel to Florida. The Jack
sonville Times. UaioapublIshes a table show
ing the arrivals for the month of January,
1887, and OF the season to January 81, from
which It appears that the number of arrivals
during January, 1887, was 1859 less than
for the same month In 1886, and that the
total number OF arrivals from October /,
1886, to January 81, 1887, was 3,0SS less
than for the same period last season. An
other significant fact which is brought out
by the Times Laion's table is that the relative
loss is much greater than the absolute loss
Taking the total number of hotel arrivals in
Jacksonville up to the end of January for sey-
eTal seasons past II is found that In the season
OF 1Ss3-'S4 the total number was 90, TS3; for
the season Of 1sS4-'s5 1t was %, ,94s; aud for
the season Of 1885 -'S6 1t was 29,70l, II the
same ratio Of increase had been maintained,

The report of John Bingham, secretary of the
Society of st. Vincent de Paul, of this city, for
the year 1856, has been made to the president
Of the Superior Council of New York. showing
the condition and workings OF the society
The report says that the zeal and energy dis

The meeting in this city, early last June. of

As INDICATING the rapid progress OF
the woman's rights movement, we
notice that bill has been favorably re.
ported by the Pennsylvania senate general
judiciary committee which relieves married
women OF the last shred Of legal disability
and places them in all respects on the same
footing before the law as adult spinsters
II empowers them to own, transfer, and
convey all kinds Of property as freely aud
absolutely as though they were single, and
10 bring or defend suit even against the
husband. The Philadelphia North american
says the bill, extreme as 1t is, merely repre-
sents the logical development of the mar.

prevailing theory that marriage is II civil

DAILY CHANGES :!

We think we can commu-
nicate S o m e interesting
business intelligence to yon
daily. For that reason we
change our advertisement
in the daily papers for every
issue. You will, therefore.
understand that we can
make but one announce
ment of separate offerings.
Having so many depart
ments to represent in type,
repetitions are not impossi-
BILE, but poor methods.
You will find it advanta-
geous to read our advertise
ment in this paper every
morning and those in the
evening papers every night.
We observe these rules in
advertising: Brevity, accu-
racy, and simplicity.
Our advertisements, to be
profitable to us, must be
valuable to you. You would
not expect to read last
weeks transpirings in to-
days paper. You are in
clined to pass over what you
have read before. If you
do this with respect to mat
ters of general news, are
you not much more likely
to do it with regard to ad-
vertisements 4? We think
that an advertisement to be
read must be interesting;
to be interesting it must
contain assertions, descrip-
tions, and quotations which
will be attractive because
they are reasonable, sensi.
BILE, and expressed to the
point.
The newspaper is a pub
lie educator. We are all
students in the same aca-
demical course. The ad-
vertisements of merchants
are like essays prepared by
scholars for the benefit of
their associates = to be read
and appreciated they must
contain something of value.
Have you examined our
75c. "a La Rose" corset,
selling this month at &c.,
and our S2.25 rs. c." cor
set, selling this month at

ber only 2G,G13. This is serious blow to
the business interests of Florida. 1t may
be easily accounted for-the surplus is In
the United States treasury instead of in the
pockets of the people. Free sugar and free
tobacco would remedy It.

Mn. MANNING thinks that the greeubacks
